Kudelski Security, the cybersecurity division of the Kudelski Group, announced at Fal.Con Europe 2026 that it is joining CrowdStrike's Project QuiltWorks as the initiative expands across Europe. The partnership aims to help organizations move from merely identifying vulnerabilities to actively remediating them, a critical shift as frontier AI accelerates both the discovery and exploitation of security weaknesses. The news, first reported via NEWMEDIAWIRE, signals a growing industry focus on turning AI-powered risk detection into measurable action.
Project QuiltWorks combines frontier AI models, CrowdStrike intelligence and real-time security data, hardened cloud infrastructure, agentic automation from Falcon IQ, partner-led remediation, and financial protection from cyber insurance leaders. Kudelski Security will contribute its Managed Risk & Exposure (MRX) Services Suite, which is built around continuous risk reduction rather than simply generating more findings. The company applies its MRX expertise directly to the CrowdStrike Falcon Exposure suite, including Falcon Exposure Management, vulnerability management, external attack surface management, and asset visibility. Kudelski's MRX Operations service correlates vulnerabilities, identity exposure, misconfiguration, cloud, endpoint, operational technology, and threat intelligence into one prioritized view of risk. Analysts and advisors then add business and operational context to validate priorities, guide remediation, support governance, and report progress to security and executive teams.
"AI is changing both sides of cybersecurity. It is helping defenders find risk faster, but it is also increasing the speed and sophistication of the threat landscape. No single organization can address that challenge alone," said David Chetrit, Chief Executive Officer of Kudelski Security. "Joining Project QuiltWorks builds on our long-standing partnership with CrowdStrike and brings together machine-speed discovery with the expertise and context required to act on it."
The collaboration matters because AI-driven vulnerability discovery is outpacing traditional remediation workflows. Organizations face a growing backlog of findings and need to know which exposures pose real-world risk. Kudelski Security also brings offensive security capabilities to independently validate prioritized exposures, helping clients act on proven risk rather than theoretical severity. This is particularly important in complex environments such as operational technology, where business criticality, regulatory requirements, and operational constraints can alter remediation approaches. The MRX service suite is designed to work across existing customer environments without forcing a rip-and-replace, and it supports CrowdStrike Falcon Exposure Management alongside other leading exposure technologies.
The announcement extends a decade-long relationship between Kudelski Security and CrowdStrike. Kudelski Security was recognized as CrowdStrike's 2024 European MSSP Partner of the Year and the 2025 International Partner of the Year. For businesses across Europe and beyond, the partnership underscores a broader shift: as AI lowers the barrier for attackers, the ability to validate and remediate risk at machine speed is becoming a competitive necessity. Organizations that fail to adapt may find themselves overwhelmed by findings they cannot act on, while those that embrace integrated remediation models could reduce exposure and strengthen resilience. More details are available in the original release.
